NOVEMBER 21ST:
Drove south from the motel about 8 miles to US-33 and took it southeast to West Virginia, stopping in Athens, Ohio, for breakfast at Burger King (great biscuits) and then to I-77 and south through West Virginia and the W.Va. Turnpike. ($6 for three tolls).
Gassed up in Wytheville, Va., always the cheapest on the trip. It was $2.56. Decided not to stop in Mt. Airy, N.C., so I could hopefully get through the Durham-Raleigh traffic mess and driving along I-40 made it.
Took US-70 to Goldsboro and stopped at the Wal-Mart east of it and bought some items.
Arrived at Mom's and we went to Goldsboro's Paramount Theater and saw Jason Coleman's show. He is the grandson of noted Nashville country pianist Floyd Cramer who was famous for his instrumental "Last Date" and his slip note style of playing. I did not know he played piano on so many country hits.
